I just wrote and will continue to do so every day until I receive a response.

The WaPo story about the continuation of the indoor mask mandate I schools has the mayor claiming the city has received no complaints from parents about the mandate, which is patently false. Please make your voices heard!





Did you ever just think that maybe it’s not as many complaints as you think?

Did you ever think that maybe the mayor is lying about this and the Washington post does not have accurate information. I’ve been consistently raising this issue.

DP. I think a lot of people are just passive on this. I know I have been until now, and I have talked to other parents who would prefer the mandate be removed but don't engage in advocacy.

It’s not just one person. I know many people who are. They’re just afraid of getting called out by their fellow parents for being republican.

Good luck with your writing. Remember what we tell kids, just because you want something doesn't mean you'll get it.

What does that tell you? I have written in, but you don't know if I'm the same poster who said it previously. Why announce it here? There are various groups on non-anonymous social media for that by now.

Exactly. I’m in a group chat with at least 30 parents who are consistently writing in. I imagine there are many many more.

There is no confirmation bias in your social groups.

Screaming into the ether always accomplishes something

Just like the truckers. You will be successful in your advocacy.

To all of the mask moms out there:

Turn on the State of the Union and tell me again how my son in K, with 1 in 1,000,000 risk from COVID, has to go to his charter school tomorrow and play at recess with a mask on for a seventh month. And wear a mask for 7 hours indoors while attempting to socialize and learn a foreign language. Because it makes YOU feel comfortable to ignore the CDC. While you work from home (probably).
